I won't get into a "location" diatribe but.......oh nevermind.

They aren't behind every tree, but it's damn close.
Rob told me he saw 8-9 bucks that would go over 140" in 9 days in IL. He's seen 3 in 27 yrs in PA.

He said he saw 40 bucks in 9 days in IL. He saw FIVE, all season, in PA.

How many trees are there out there?
Wow! I'd like to hunt a place like that!

In my Ill spot I saw 12 bucks in 20 days and only 1 that went over 140" (so I shot it!).
Greg, it's true except it was 41 sightings, probably 25 different deer with 8-9 going over 140 and this was from the same tree! I had a wonderful time! !
I didn't doubt it. Just pointing out that it's not like that for the whole state of Illinois.
